The shift to electric fleets isn’t a question of if but when. With the 2030 ban on new petrol and diesel cars fast approaching, businesses must start making critical decisions about their transition to electric vehicles (EVs). A recent whitepaper from Allstar provides a roadmap for fleet managers looking to optimise costs, boost efficiency, and navigate the challenges of EV adoption.
Charging Cost Management:
EV charging expenses depend on when and where vehicles charge. Home charging overnight can be 90% cheaper than using public rapid chargers during peak hours. Smart charging policies—such as setting up home charging reimbursements—can help businesses maximise savings.
Managing Fleet Charging Infrastructure:
Companies need a clear strategy for workplace, public, and home charging. Fleet managers should establish reimbursement systems, identify the best energy tariffs, and track charging data to avoid unnecessary costs.
Residual Values & Leasing Considerations:
Leasing can protect businesses from fluctuating EV resale values, offering flexibility while the market continues to evolve.
Lower Maintenance Costs:
EVs have fewer moving parts than ICE vehicles, resulting in 50% lower service, maintenance, and repair costs. Over time, this leads to significant savings for businesses running a fleet.
Switching to an electric fleet isn’t just about sustainability. It’s about cost-efficiency, future-proofing operations, and taking advantage of tax incentives and lower running costs.
